Greetings, Nafexers,
Hoping someone out there can suggest a source from which I might procure a few
Pi 80
(a.k.a. Pillnitzer 80 and Supporter 4) rootstocks for trial here this year.
Many thanks,
Richard

Oops, forgot to change the subject box of my last post - from Fluf's "[Nafex]
Books" to:
"Seeking rootstock." Sorry.

I have first hand experience with only one tree that has runted out, this
belongs to my niece who let the tree overbear when young. It is, after three
or four years only 2 feet high! But it bears apples ok apparently. (On Bud
9)
My question is, does runting out, if later controlled by thinning, have any
drawbacks other than possible unwanted size control? I think its kind of
neat that she has a two foot tree that bears good apples.
I'm wondering if this could be done to other trees to intentionally decrease
their size. Has anyone tried this?
